Whopping late '77 version of this, the Dead intuitively coasting the waves of the atmosphere's collective imagination.

Huey Lewis adds harp effectively standing in for the late Pigpen. only 7 versions from the 90's, awesomely badass

Heavy. Mythos is triple decker thick. Creative devils and lesh with searing shuffle joy. Cogs grinding in poetic perfection to a rousing bluesy medley soaked in mollasses.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

positively soaring!!! Sunbeaming with uncompromising tunnel marathon juju. Casually heavy, snarling brisk and graceful. Inspired energy. Exceptionally great version, top notch

yess, real nice and inspired stuff here. accompaniment starts tentative and deeeep in midi. Lots of nooks and crannies even before the expansive helicopter ride jam near 9mins which fearlessly stirs the strings of your stupid little puppets. look out for atonal jazzy weir and plush symphonic synth work, steel pitch bend fx jerry and polyrhythmic gumbo stash.
